My Sole Desire Poem by Tirupathi Chandrupatla

Knowledge
Do give us as abundantly as You can
Ignorance
Please remove it entirely from earth.

Wisdom's the amazing quality You gave
Wisdom's man's distinct characteristic
Wisdom enables one to search truth
Wisdom helps one to acquire more wisdom.

Let knowledge open door to ways of the world
Let scientific know-how move the right way
Teach us ways to learn all about ourselves
We wish to reach You ultimately if possible.

I gained a little bit of understanding
I used it to gather words in Your praise
Please accept this earnest request of mine
Welfare of all mankind's my sole desire.
